  • What's my plug gap?

    Dumb question, I don't have my '40s manual yet and I am getting ready to go put in some new plugs. It's a straight six and useing Champion D-16s. What's the plug gap? Thanks in advance

        I presume you have the necessary feeler gauge to check the new plugs, prior to putting the plugs into their respective places? [)]

            LOL, pardon my accuracy crack, I have a date in a few days with mating a T86 to a 289 that never saw one, so guess what that means for what I need to do to it's bellhousing. [] [)]
